Remarkable Passage

Alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the bank, and of having nothing to do: once or twice she had peeped into the book her sister was reading, but it had no pictures or conversations in it, “and what is the use of a book,” thought Alice, “without pictures or conversations?”

     This is the very first paragraph of the novel and in my opinion is one of the most important since this is the first impression you have of the story and the author's writing style. I know you can't judge a whole book by its first few lines, but a catchy first paragraph can make your reading more pleasant or not. 
     Well this is where our story begins. You can see theres some imagery in this passage, enhancing its impact. We also can tell that the character in the passage, Alice, is a child and she feels bored about the world around her. We can also infer that Alice has a creative mind and likes to discover new things and feed her imagination. Through this passage we can start to know our protagonist traces and her reality
